The amount disclosed for the six-month period ended 30 June 2014 is US$425 million (six-

concerning the timing of recognition of results as well as differences relating to the accounting
treatment of share-based payments, exceptional items, the definition of the US GAAP
statutory earnings as reported by Altria compared with SABMiller’s results as reported under
IFRS, as well as the inclusion within Altria’s earnings of gains on the dilution of Altria’s
investment in SABMiller following the issue of new SABMiller shares pursuant to share option
